Both Loras students and faculty moderators spent many hours and traveled many miles in preparation, judging, and participation in related activities in pursuit of superiority in public speaking. All told, Loras speakers competed in nine different forensic tournaments during the year, events such as the Iowa Intercollegiate Forensic Associations Interpretive Festival at Iowa State University in Ames. In the course of the year Loras speakers competed with other speakers from such schools as the Univer¬ sity of Wisconsin, Marquette, the University of Iowa, Loyola and others.
